Fly tipping that caused a country road to be closed last week came from outwith the Falkirk council area, an investigation has found.
The offenders have now been served with Fixed Penalty Notices and Falkirk Council says it wants to "assure communities that we will take necessary action wherever evidence can be retrieved".
The council says it has also contacted environment watchdog SEPA to assist with "appropriate action" due to the scale of the incident - including the potential for increased financial penalties to the perpetrators.
